Question

i dont beleive in faith, faith says we should follow something we can not see, faith is like the higher level of beleif, sept you can see what you beleive in, i do not see what i have faith in, in phisical terms, i would be walking around a room running into walls, never finding the door.

i said proof, not disagreements.

Answer 1

GOD is telling you all the time.
You just don´t listen or are kind of deaf.
Pay attention, try to hear His marvelous voice.
He is telling that He loves you.
It is not by blind faith.
I t is a question of awareness, of perception. But you have to look for it.

Answer 2

You do believe in faith. Daily. When you sit in a chair, you're believing in faith. How do you know the chair will hold you up? 1) You test it. God has answered my prayers.
2) You see other people sit on it. I've seen God work miracles in the lives of others
3) You research it. The Bible has all the answers we need. Really.

And God needs you to have faith. He's told you through the Bible already, it's complete! And you know what? Even Satan believes in God and Jesus - but he doesn't accept it. All you have to do is 1) Believe 2) Accept through a short prayer - and then you can know for sure you're on your way to heaven. Look up Romans 10:9. SHALL be saved. Not could be saved if God's in a good mood. God promises in the Bible. And He doesn't lie. Really.

" Behold! In the creation of the Heavens and the Earth; In the alternation of the night and day; In the sailing of the ships through the Oceans for the profit of mankind; In the rain which God sends down from the skies, and the life that He therewith to an earth that is dead; In the beasts of all kinds that He scatters through the Earth; In the change of the winds, and the clouds which they trail like their slaves between the sky and the earth -Indeed these are signs for a people that are wise." [The Qur'aan 2:164]

"It is He who has made the sun a shining glory and the moon a light of beauty and has measured out their stages, that you might know the number of years and their reckoning.Allah did not create this but in Truth. He explains His signs in detail for people who understand.[The Qur'aan 10:5]

"He has created the heavens and the earth with Truth. Far is He above having the partners that they ascribe to him. He has created mankind from a sperm drop; and behold this (same) man becomes anopen disputer! And the cattle, He has created them for you; in them is warmth (warm clothing) and numerous benefits, and of them you eat." [The Qur'aan 16:3-5]

"Blessed be He who sent down the Criterion to His servant that it may be an admonition to all creatures. To Him belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth; no son has he begotten, nor has He any partner in His dominion; It is He who created all things and gave them their due proportions.Yet they have taken besides Him gods that can create nothing but are themselves created; that have no control of hurt or good to themselves; nor do they control life nor death nor Resurrection."[The Qur'aan 25:1-3]

"Were they created by nothing or did they create themselves? Or did they create the heavens and the earth ? No, they have no firm belief."[The Qur'aan 52:36]

"He it is who enables you to travel through land and sea, until, when you are in the ships and they sail with a favourable wind and you are glad about that. Then comes a stormy wind and the waves come to you from all sides and when you think that you are encircled by them, you call upon God making your faith pure for Him alone saying :'If You deliver us from this we shall truly be grateful.' But when He delivers you, behold! you rebel in the earth wrongfully. O mankind, your rebellion against God is only against your own selves - a brief enjoyment of this wordly life, then in the end unto Us is your return We shall inform you of that which you used to do." [The Qur'aan 10:22-23]

Answer 4

He does tell and also show, but we humans, at times, choose to, neither see nor hear him. Does a flower tell u that it has fragrance? no.... yet if we smell it we find it. Similarly you cannot see fear, joy, danger, excitement, etc yet we feel it. Then why not feel faith? Who else could create every atom of this universe, and keep adding on to it, and the keep it going constantly in rhythm? If you say that' plain science or physics...... then who created science. Whatever is analysed or proved is termed as science, but ther is so much more to it. Just try to look for Him, you'll find him everywhere.

Answer 5

It sounds like you ARE walking around a room full of doubt, running into walls now and don't seem to be finding the door!! You need to recognize what door you are looking for first of all in order to find it. It's the door of your heart that Jesus is knocking at and it's up to you and ONLY you to open the door to your Savior who wants to come in and live in you, to guide and save you. Ever see the picture of Jesus standing at the door knocking? If not go into a christian bookstore and ask to see it. Someone said that the artist messed up this picture, as he forgot to put the knob on the side of the door Jesus was standing by. It was not an artists' error, it was intentional. The knob is on the other side - we need the knob to open the door, not Jesus. Jesus will not invade your heart thru force.He's asking you to invite Him in and take that knob and open that door! Jesus gave us the choice. He gave us His Word so that we would know Him. So that we would hear Him thru His Word. Stop running into walls and open your (heart) door! The proof wants to live in you thru The Holy Spirit!

Answer 6

If you just listen, if you just look, if you just feel, if you just experience, you will know that God is very real and that He is telling us He is real every moment of every hour of every day. Sometimes you just need to stop and take a deep breath and experience the beauty of life...then you'll know that God is real. Faith is the substance of things hoped for and the evidence of things not seen.
If you have ever hoped, you have put faith into action.

Answer 7

I used to work at a bank and I would get a paycheck every two weeks. I never met the man who signed my paycheck but I knew he existed because somebody had to sign his name on the line. While I have never physically seen him, I have FAITH that he exists. I'm an atheist but it's okay to have faith sometimes. You know?

Answer 8

The reason is because not everyone is going to become saved. Because of sin we are spiritually dead and cannot know or understand spiritual things. A spiritually dead person thinks that the Bible is absolute foolishness and will not accept spiritual things. Their spiritual deadness has blinded them that they cannot see nor hear the things of God.

Faith is something that God creates and gives us. It accompanies salvation and does not come from within ourselves. Therefore, if one is not going to be saved by God they will remain spiritually dead since they cannot enter the kingdom of heaven.

I tell you the truth... God has already revealed Himself to me through the scriptures. So he has already told me He exists.

Answer 9

God sent His Son as His messenger....Faith is the substance of things hoped for and the evidence of things not seen. It may look like we're taking a step in the dark but the waters never part until our feet get wet.

How do you know He's not telling you now through His people?

Answer 10

I think it is really telling that God is silent. Now that we have a multitude of recording devices, of course.
God sure did a lot of talking and showing off for the people of the bible, I feel a little abandoned. I can't envision God being this illusive if my eternal soul is hanging in the balance.
